Quakelive core extration failure

I just posted this in bugs but i guess tech support would be better, iv deleted and reinstalled several times, iv tryd on firefox and explorer and nothings working still getting that msg when i try to join a game, the game downloads just fine but its actually trying to join a game that wont work

I received this error after the game crashing and I had to restart my computer to get of the game.
However, now Firefox's plug-in container is open all the time and the process refuses to be terminated through task manager, even restarting my computer again won't kill it.
Because of the plug-in container being constantly open, I can't delete my .pk3 files or the folder as Firefox's plug-in container is using them (the game crashed in-game).

I Have found a way to fix this if you were trying to edit the quake live config and then it failed when you tried to reload quake live go to the folder %userprofile%\AppData\LocalLow\id Software\quakelive\home\baseq3 right click in properties uncheck read only files and it worked for me if not dunno

Quake plugin

Hey, i have a problem with some quake plugin probably.
It couldnt be loaded. .. When i try to play some game, it shows : You are downloading required data and must let it finish before you can join an online match. OR Quake Live core extraction failed. I have Google Chrome.

I'm getting this error running google chrome Version 27.0.1453.94 m with windows 7 version 6.1 build 7601 sp1. I am set to administrator. Clearing cache and cookies did not work. I could not delete my pk3 files no matter what I did (which was a lot) because they were perpetually in use, and "had to" uninstall then reinstall QL. That didn't work. I've tried everything here. Nothing worked. It was fine 12 hours ago. Nothing changed on my end - no downloads, installs, uninstalls, or crashes. Considering this is the end of my rope, I'm really hoping one of you fine people finds a way to add more rope please and thank you.
